Garden Notes Hints and Suggestions for Amateurs
Garden notes from J. W. Robinson advise beginners to buy young begonias rather than raise fine seeds. They praise dwarf calliopsis for rich orange and crimson tones, list compact varieties like Tom Thumb Beauty Crimson King and Star of Fire, and note cockscomb’s nest dwarf bed use with crimson and gold colors. Cosmos are less favored but useful for dwarf beds, growing to about two feet with profuse flowering.
Marigolds and Nasturtiums For Summer Bedding Plans
For summer bedding use tall and dwarf marigolds including Guinea Gold and Golden Ball for bold borders, plus African and French types. Nasturtiums with double flowering strains perform best in poor soil and full sun. avoid rich or shady ground to prevent foliage over blooms. Prepare soil in advance, sow only high quality seeds, and add wood ashes or soot before sowing to improve germination and pest resistance.

Garden notes on sea kale and spring vegetables
The article explains sea kale can be grown in rich garden soil with decayed manure for quick tender young growth. It notes seed cultivation is slow, two years to usable plants, and recommends Lily-White as best. advises using seedlings like carrot, cabbage, and onions with timely hoeing to boost growth as milder weather approaches. It lists vegetables favorable for a milder week and those sensitive to heat.
The Appeal of Ireland by John Whelan Dulanty
High Commissioner for the Irish Free State in London since 1930 notes Ireland’s appeal lies in its landscape and history. He cites vivid greens, unspoiled plains, hundreds of small towns, indented coastlines, and the blend of nature with medieval towers and castles shaping a bright present.
